Upset-Minded Hogs
Ready For Rugged Ags
By GUS BECKER
Battalion Sports JVriter
The big Arkansas Razorbacks,
up one week, down the next, will be
up and ready for the Aggies this
Saturday at Fayetteville.
Lamar McHan, brilliant sopho
more back for the Hogs is the
fourth leading ball carrier in the
conference, gaining 268 yards in
69 carries. McHan is also one of
the top passers in the conference
completing 26 out of 75 aerials
for 365 yards and two touchdowns.
He has a 13-4 yards per pass aver
age.
In total offense McHan is third
behind Larry Isbell and Fred Ben
ners with a total gain of 618 yards.
In the punting department the
Razorback star has a 40.2 average
in 12 punts, to come in second in
the conference.
Leading Punt Returner
Johnny Cole, a junior back for
the Arkansas team, is the leading
punt returner in the Southwest
Conference, returning eight for 163
yards for an average of 20.4 yards.
Last week against Santa Clara,
Cole returned four punts for 139
yards for a 34.7 average.
Pat Summerall, co-captain of the
1951 team, is among the top place
kickers in the conference having
made three field goals for nine
points. Summerall is also among
the leading pass receivers catch
ing 15 passes for 217 yards and
two touchdowns for an average
gain per pass of 14.5 yards.
In last week’s game against
Santa Clara the tall Arkansas end
caught three passes for 40 yards.
The two touchdowns and the three
field goals place Summerall with
the leading scorers with 21 points.
Jim Rinehart, leading Hog quar
terback last season who is not ex
pected to play because of an ap
pendectomy, is one of the leading
passers with 17 out of 29 com
pleted for 189 yards and two touch
downs. Rinehart is a leading scor
er with three touchdowns for 18
points.
Bill Jurney who anchors one end
of the heavy Hog line is the third
top pass receiver in the confer
ence with 16 passes caught for
259 yards and two touchdowns.
Buddy Sutton, a shifty halfback
for the Razorback squad, has scor
ed 18 points this season to be
among the top ten leading scor
ers in the conference and scored
one of Arkansas’ two touchdowns
last week.
Jurney is expected to be out the
rest of the season from an injury
received in the Santa Glarfj game.
An emergency operation was per
formed on Jurney to remove a
ruptured spleen early Sunday
morning.
Halfback Phillip Reginelli, a
sophomore from Lake Village Ar
kansas, who an All-State player
in high school has shined on de
fense for the Razorbacks, who are
second in the Conference on de
fense.
Giving Reginelli a helping hand
are Floyd Sagely, Edsel Nix, and
Charlie Hallum, all sophomores.
Big Lineman
In the line, tackles Tom Gar-
lington and Buster Graves, are
playing as much ball as the vet
erans. Garlington is a 6 foot 2
inch, 220 pound sophomore from
El Dorado, Arkansas. Graves is a
6 foot four inch, 235 pound sopho
more from Memphis Tennessee.
The “five giants from the
Ozarks” normally refers to the
Razorbacks basketball team, but
right now it refers to the formid
able wall of senior two-year letter-
men that make up the Hog defen
sive and offensive line.
Heading the list is All-Confer
ence tackle Dave Hanner, who is
co-captain of the team with Sum
merall. Jurney’s replacement Frank
Fischel is the lightest man of the
group weighing 210 pounds.
Rounding out the “impenetrable”
middle are tackle Bob Griffin who
was a standout in the Texas game
and Fred Williams, center. Han
ner, Griffin and williams each
weigh about 235 pounds while Sum
merall tips the scales at 218.
McHan Sparks Backs
In the backfield helping Mc
Han will be Sammy Dumas, a 190
pound second year man who is fast
and shifty and very hard to stop.
Dean Pryor, who is a junior and
one of the fastest men on the squad
starts at halfback. Also seeing
a lot of service in the backfield
will be Sutton who is a junior and
was All-Southern in high school.
Lewis Carpenter, who has been
handicapped by injuries this sea
son is not expected to see apy ac
tion.
The Hog line averages 218 on
both offense and defense will be
hard to penetrate, especially as
they will be “up” for this contest.
Arkansas has broken even with
the Aggies in the football depart
ment winning 11 games to the
Cadets 11 with, two games ending
in ties.

By BENNY HOLUB
Battalion News Writer
When the Texas Aggies clash

the tie that exists between the two
schools.
The tie that both teams will be
trying to break in their own favor
is that 11-11 won and lost record

Aggies and the Hogs have met
24 times, with each team winning
11 games and 2 games resulting in
ties.

to score more than 42 points
against the Arkansas boys and this
was accomplished in last year’s
game, in which the Aggies won
42-13.
Two ties between A&M and Ar
kansas came in 1934 and 1947 by
scores of 7-7 and 21-21 respective
ly. The Cadets went into the ’47
game as underdogs and had to
rally for the tie.
Worst defeat the Aggies have
ever suffered at the hands of the
Hogs was in 1948 when they lost
28-6.
Arkansas never scored more than
28 points against an Aggie “11,”
but have made it into the twenties
several times.
The Aggies have several high
scores over the Hogs besides the
42-13 win. They have wins of

Billy Tidwell
Billy Tidwell, halfback, has been chosen as the Battalion’s Top
Offensive Back of the Week for his sensational performance in the
Aggie-Baylor classic. Tidwell broke through twice going the
complete distance on 50-yard and 66-yard sprints. He also re
turned a kickoff 53 yards in the fading minutes of the game.

In Triangular
Cross-Country
A scheduled dual meet be
tween A&M and the Univer
sity of Arkansas on Nov. 3
has now taken on the aspects
of the actual Southwest Con
ference cross country also sche
duled on the Razorbacks campus
later in November.
Texas University has asked per
mission to make the dual meet a
triangular one and permission was
granted.
These three schools—Arkansas,
A&M, and Texas—finished one-
two-three respectively in the 1950
cross country meet at College Sta
tion, and they are favored to take
the top three places again this
year—though of course, the order
of the finish is in doubt.
The meet will be Arkansas’s first
of the season. The Aggie and
Longhorns, however, have already
seen competition, with the Cadets
appearing to have the best chance
at the league crown.
The Aggies los to Oklahoma’s
cross country team by a single
point in a dual meet; and in a
triangular, Oklahoma A&M bested
both the Texas schools, though
barely winning over the cadets by
two points, Texas was a distant
third.
The conference meet is Nov. 19.
Running for the Aggies will be
James Blaine, Dale DeRouen, John
Garmany, Charles Gabriel, Char
les Hudgins and alternates Joe
Zern and Joe Criswell.
Running for Arkansas this year
will be lettermen Temple Brown,
Jame Yarbrough, Rick Heber, Bill
Cairns and James Bean, and soph
omore Bill Hills.
Lippman Still Leads
SWC Ball Carriers
Based On AP Release
Glenn Lippman of A&M clung
to his lead in ball-carrying but
Gib Dawson of Texas moved with
in six yards of him. Lippman was
416 yards on 67 carries compared
to 410 for Dawson on 51 runs.
Dawson has the highest average
with eight yards per carry. Lipp
man shows 6.2.
Darrow Hooper of A&M is lead
ing in the place kicking depart
ment. Hooper has made 16 points
after touchdowns out of 18 at

ceivers by snagging 10 passes for
180 yards.
Ray Graves is the Aggie top
passer and is fourth in the confer
ence with an even .500 percentage.
Graves has completed 30 out of
60 attempts for 393 yards.
Larry Isbell, Baylor’s great
quarterback, has taken over the
total offense leadership of South
west Conference football.
The great Isbell, who rolled up
154 yards in piloting Baylor to its
11-21 tie with Texas A&M Satur
day, now has 823 yards rushing
and passing in 133 plays.
He replaces Fred Benners, the
Southern Methodist passer, who
fell to second place with 758 yards.
Benners still is the leading pass
er with 68 completions on 132 at
tempts for 790 yards, but Isbell has
moved into a strong threatening
position. Larry’s 725 yards on 54

down passes, with seven.

FIRST RUN
By JARO NETARDUS
As Told To
PAT LeBLANC
“My greatest thrill came in 1949,
when we beat, I mean when we
tied SMU, 27-27.”
“That’s when they (SMU) had
Rote, Walker and Co.”
“I was a sophomore then.”
“We were still building that
year. The Tech, that is, the Texas
Tech game was our only victory.”
“We were starving for a win.”
“My best thrill in that game
was blocking for Bob Smith and
watching him run.”
“Bob was really going that day.
It was a pleasure to throw a block
and watch him shake off would-be
tacklers.”
“The play was a trap play that
had been working throughout the
day.”
“I think that he (Smith) ramb
led about 40 to 50 yards on that
play. I threw a good block then.
I came in from the right end spot
on the right lineblocker.”
“This run by Bob put the ball
up close.”
“Bob scored on a short plunge
after that.”
“I believe that made it tied up at
20-20.”
“That whole game had been a
catch-up affair for both teams.
They’d score; we’d score and they’d
score again.”
“Each time we made a good
gain or score it just fired us up
a little more.”
“We realized that we could
match SMU touchdown for touch
down.”
“It’s sure a good feeling.”
“Though it was a tie we felt like
we all had won the game.”
When asked who were perform
ers in the Ag backfield, Netardus
commented: “Glenn Lippman, Billy
Tidwell, Dick Gardemal and of
course, Bob Smith.” •
“I believd that Buddy Shaeffer
Was kicking the extra points then.
At least, I can remember him kick
ing one.”
“That qne was weak, in fact,
it barely got over.”
“And those extra points really
counted in that game.”
“Up to that game, it had been
a hard go;, but after that victory,
I mean tie, we were really fired
up.”
